Hello Audiophiles
Greetings! I hope you are all well.
I was hoping to get some ideas and reccomendations for good speakers to match my amplifier : Cambridge Audio CXA60.
I have a small room and the speakers will be relatively close to the wall with a little breathing room.
Currently I wad thikining about the elac b6 or elac B6.2 however I am yet to audition these speakers. My budget is around $600 . Second hand speakers would be considered as well.
I listen to funk and soul, electronic music, disco, rock etc.
Cheers

Hi All,
I was hoping to get some advice on how best to hookup digital audio from my xbone one to my amplifier with onboard dac.
Currently I have my xbox one connected to my tv via hdmi. I have an optical out from my tv connected to optical out on my amplifier dac.
Would there be an degradation in audio quality as the signal is being passed via my tv? As I also use the xbox to play cds.
If so I can connect an optical direct from the xbox one to the amplifier as an alternative.
Thanks for the advice!

Hey mate , i have a very similar setup in my lounge room . I have a cambridge audio cxa60 which does not have a phono stage in the amplifier. The turntable I purchased was a projecr essential 2 Digital which I am happy with. The project deck has inbuilt phono with both analogue and optical out. Perfect for a digital setup

@mloutfie thanks mate for the suggestion and pic. I think this would be a great solution to try. Looks like the spring isolation feet are available on eBay unless you have a reccomendation for another source. Muchos Gracias

Hello Audio Enthusiasts
I have recently acquired a project essential 2 digital. My current setup has my turntable on the same shelving unit as my speakers.
Wanting to dampen any unwanted vibration Im going to make myself an isolation platform.
Wondering if any other forum members have put one together and if so what materials they had used?
Thanks in advance

Thanks for all the advice audio enthusiasts. Being impatient I did go with my original idea if the Cambridge CXA60 and the Project digital soon after I posted here. I got the two for $1350,which I thought of as pretty good value. I'm very happy with both pieces. The NAD amp suggested in this thread would have been an option as well if I came across it in my search. I needed multiple inputs so active speakers were out of my search criteria.
Now to find the next toy to add to this set up ?
Thanks all

Hello Fellow Audio Enthusiasts
I was hoping to pool on the sum of your expert knowledge to recommend me some new kit. I am after an integrated amplifier and turntable for a small sized lounge.
Budget up to $1300 and looking for the most bang for buck sound in this price range.
Features Im looking for in the integrated amplifier:
DAC preferable with USB input
USB to play audio would be a nice to have
Option for Bluetooth playback would be a nice to have
Phone stage, but not a deal breaker as I could possible purchase a turntable with build in Phono
60 Watts amplification and above
Great sounding amplifier prferable with good bass response.
Turntable wise Im open to all suggestions.
With my own research I have located a Cambridge Audio CXA60 and Pro-Ject Digital turntable that meets this budget, hoping some of you might have alternative set ups to suggest
Thank you in advance everyone, Im itching to get a hold of a turntable set up
Cheers
